working as Overseer. Provisional pension and commuted value of
pension have been sanctioned and disbursed to him. Final pension and
other terminal benefits including DCRG are yet to be paid.

grade granted to the petitioner, some irregularities have been noticed
and after rectifying the mistake committed, the pay of the petitioner
will have to be regularised. It is for this reason, delay has occasioned
in finally settling the terminal benefits.
4. Since it is 11 months since the petitioner had retired from
service, the respondent shall expedite the action taken for regularising
the pay and settling the terminal benefits. Hence, it is necessary to fix
a time limit for completing the above process. There shall be an order
directing the respondents to regularise the pay within one month from
the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment. Terminal benefits due to
W.P.(C)No. 31144/2006 2
